Default Intake manifold leak ?

So I’m pretty sure I have an air leak on my kinetix v+ Plenum shop probably didn’t pay the black parmatex gasket maker good enough when installing new engine. But I want to re do it and I was wondering if the right stuff 1 minute gasket maker or the 90 minute gasket maker would work good if not I’ll continue to use the black parmatex but don’t really wanna wait the full 24 hours for it to cure unless I have to
any input ?

If you clean all mating surfaces well and follow directions exactly you should be OK. I highly recommend borrowing /renting/ buying an inch-pound torque wrench for this project to get all the fasteners correctly tightened. Check your manufacturers specs, OEM is around 48-60 inch lbs. Good luck!
